Update: When I startup my PC the setting in the file ~/.cache/simple-
scan/state is
[window]
width=600
height=400
is-maximized=true
is-fullscreen=false
[last-page]
width=1240
height=1750
dpi=300
scan-direction=top-to-bottom
The displayed, empty page in simple scan is A4. Now I put in one A4 page
and start the scan via "CTL-F". During the scanning the page size
shrinks and after finishing the scan the file content changed to
heigh=1650.
This happens every time after an upstart of the PC. I can then set from
"A4" to "automatic", scan once and the right size comes up.
However, when shutting down the PC, this setting ("automatic") is going
to be loaded upon a fresh start. Then, the same thing happens (size is
correct, during scan it gets cropped). But now I have to change to
another size ("A4" for example) and then scan and then change to
"automatic" and scan to get the right size.
This is awkward and unnerving.
Please can someone help to fix this? I absolutely love simple scan and
use it every day!

Bug description:
For some SANE drivers simple scan always scans the largest scan area
ignoring the "Page Size" setting in the preferences.
To reproduce:
1. Open Simple Scan
2. Set page size in Document > Prefrences > Page Size, e.g. to "4x6"
3. Scan a document
Expected result:
The document is scanned at the requested size
Observed result:
The document is scanned at the maximum size
Regression potential:
Low. The fix was to set the page size using an alternative method for drivers
that do not support the page-width, page-height options. There is a small
chance that these settings might change behaviour / expose bugs on drivers that
were previously working.
